I used to wait until they looked like they were going to fall from the pods

My guess is another slackii, maybe from a root growing close to the surface , have to wait and see

I think you'd be better off without the bell jar, I grow mine open to my house humidity and temps all year round, lowest humidity upper 20's but not often , average humidity at a guess between 40 and 50 ,they grow and flower well enough but I have them under Flo lights but am sure a sunny window would be fine ,adjust them with a bag and increase hole size and I reckon no jar required

I don't know much at all about tuberous drosera and grew these d ramellosa from tubers last season, I dug them up recently to see if any daughter tubers had been formed , they hadn't but the original tubers now seem to look a very strange shape though significantly larger ,any idea if this is normal

http://www.cpukforum.com/forum/index.php?/topic/55273-just-how-hardy-is-utricularia-reniformis/ This thread might be worth a look, I read this thread a couple of years back and decided to get a plant , it has survived freezes if kept pretty dry

I would suggest you secure it somehow , they blow over very easily and that's a nightmare, I have a few and found out the hard way, I have concrete blocks on the very bottom shelve , you could do this and place your pots with seeds on top as you don't need height. Totally agree with Ada , two seasons and then cover is screwed by UV , I still think they are worth it though

I admit I've never heard of it but like the vivid red colour , looks to have relatively large flowers on short stalks? Would be a bonus my book , thanks for sharing the pic

When using something new I always test it out on a sacrificial sundew just to make sure , but then I always have loads of spares normally where they shouldn't be growing
-
If it's sold specifically for pool filters it should be good, you could add vinegar or anything acidic to test it , if it fizzes its not good
-
Mobile how big are the largest pitchers on your plant , nicely grown plant but is it staying bonzai?
-
Big difference in colour too , good to see a substantial difference in clones
-
I agree that something wrong if that's ten years old, but that could be a number of things and not necessarily solved by a repot, but if that's a twelve inch bucket its growing in I'll take it all back
